Lying From You
When I pretend,
everything is what I want it be,
I looked exactly like what you always wanted to see
I can't forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second
just cause I know I can, but
I can't pretend
this is they way it will stay, I'm just
(Lying to defend the truth)
I can't pretend I'm who you want me to be so
(I'm lying my way from)
You
(Nah, no turning back now)
I wanna be closed inside so let me go
Let me take back my life
I'd rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
And anywhere on my own, cause I can't see
The very worst part of you
IS ME
I remember what they taught to me,
Remember condescending talk of who it ought to be
Remember listening to all of that and this again
So I pretended up a person who was fitting in
And now you think this person really is me and I
(Trying to defend the truth )
yo, the more I push I'm pulling away cause I'm
(Lying my way from)
This isn't what I wanted to be,
I never thought what I said
would have you running from me
LIKE THIS!
